CompareText.app - Document Comparison Tool
At CompareText.app, we believe your privacy matters. This policy explains exactly what happens to your information when you use our document comparison service. We've written this in plain English because we think privacy policies should be understandable, not filled with legal jargon that nobody can decipher.
When you upload documents to compare, here's what actually happens: Your files are processed entirely in your browser. We never send your documents to our servers, and we certainly don't store them anywhere. Once you close your browser tab, everything disappears. It's like the digital equivalent of shredding paper documents after you're done with them.
Like most websites, we collect some basic information about how people use our site. This includes things like which pages are popular, how long people spend comparing documents, and general location data (think "someone from California visited" rather than "John Smith from 123 Main Street"). We use this information to improve the service and fix bugs that might be annoying users.
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements that help keep CompareText.app free to use. Google may collect information about your visit to show you relevant ads. This is pretty standard across the internet, and you can control these settings through your Google account or browser preferences.
Since we don't actually store your documents, there's not much we can do with them even if we wanted to. The basic usage information helps us understand if people are finding the tool useful and where we might need to make improvements.
For example, if we notice that lots of people are having trouble with PDF uploads, we know that's something we should work on fixing. If everyone seems to love the side-by-side comparison view, we know we're on the right track.
We partner with Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. These ads help us keep the service free for everyone. Google uses cookies and similar technologies to show you ads based on your interests and previous web activity.
You have several options if you'd prefer not to see personalized ads:
The best security is not storing sensitive data in the first place. Since your documents never leave your browser, there's no central database that could be compromised. Your document comparison happens entirely on your own device.
That said, we do take reasonable precautions to protect the basic website functionality and any minimal data we do collect for analytics purposes.
You have complete control over your experience with CompareText.app:
CompareText.app is designed for general use and doesn't specifically target children under 13. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children. If you're a parent and have concerns about your child's use of our service, please contact us.
If we need to update this privacy policy, we'll post the changes here and update the "Last Updated" date at the top. We won't make any major changes without giving users reasonable notice, though honestly, since we're not collecting much data to begin with, dramatic changes are unlikely.
CompareText.app is available worldwide. If you're using our service from outside the United States, please be aware that any information collected may be transferred to and processed in the United States, where our servers are located.
For users in the European Union, our legal basis for processing any personal information is:
